The GnATTERbox

A general talking shop for any subject under the sun (even Monty Python). This would also be a good place to make suggestions about the site itself or about these forums (or "fora", if you're particularly pedantic).

Apparently this is an early Buster Keaton silent film "Our Hospitality" A wikipedia article says that the train was a replica of Stephenson's Rocket specially built for the film.There is quite a lot of railway interest in this. There are stub points in one scene.Perhaps this is inspiration for a Gn15 Emett railway with similarly dodgy track?cheers, thanks for sharing,Geoff
